Or the other capital, the one that billionaires all have?

DragonTypeWyvern,

They’re both spelled the same in this instance. A capitol is a building that houses a legislature.

    • Wordle is match,
    • for phase of the moon you can just 🌔 🌔 🌒🌖,
    • for guessing a country textlists.info/geography/countries-of-the-world/ (all of them, just like with the phases, but need to be lowercase-ified to not interfere with roman numerals),
    • leap year is literally 1984, also requires replacing 55555 with a 3)
    gnutrino,

    Could someone that understands chess explain the answer to rule 16? I got it by just plugging in all possible moves until it passed but it seems like a dumb move that gets your queen captured for no real benefit.

    SpoilerThe answer is apparently Qg6+ but I don’t see how this is any better than Qh5+ for example which would (presumably) be followed by g6 then Qxg6+ putting you in the same position but with one less pawn for black. What am I missing?

    crazyCat,

    I think because after that queen move and losing it, you follow up with the C2 bishop to G6 and it’s checkmate?

    mhague,

    It’s because it’s a shorter mate so the engine considers it a better move.

    Qh5+ g6, Bxg6 hxg6, Qxg6#

    vs

    Qg6+ hxg6, Bxg6#

    Crozekiel,

    I got a different Chess one and it is kicking my ass.
